Answer: B

Assume that no banks hold excess reserves, and the public holds no currency. If a bank sells a $100 security to the Bank of Canada, explain what happens to this bank and two additional steps in the deposit expansion process, assuming a 10 percent reserve requirement. How much do deposits and loans increase for the banking system when the process is completed?

Answer: Bank A first changes a security for reserves, and then lends the reserves, creating loans. It receives $100 in reserves from the sale of securities. Since all of these reserve will be excess reserves (there was no change in chequable deposits), the bank will loan out all $100. The $100 will then be deposited into Bank B. This bank now has a change in reserves of $100, of which $90 is excess reserves. Bank B will loan out this $90, which will be deposited into Bank C. Bank C now has an increase in reserves of $90, $81 of which is excess reserves. Bank C will loan out this $81 dollars and the process will continue until there are no more excess reserves in the banking system. For the banking system, both loans and deposits increase by $1000.

Answer: D

Explain two ways by which the Bank of Canada can increase the monetary base. Why is the effect of Bank of Canada actions on bank reserves less exact than the effect on the monetary base?

Answer: The Bank can increase the monetary base by purchasing government bonds and by extending advances to banks. If the person selling the security chooses to keep the proceeds in currency, bank reserves do not increase. Because the Bank cannot control the distribution of the monetary base between reserves and currency, it has less control over reserves than the base.

Explain two reasons why the Bank of Canada does not have complete control over the level of bank deposits and loans. Explain how a change in either factor affects the deposit expansion process.

Answer: The Bank of Canada does not completely control the level of bank deposits and loans because banks can hold excess reserves and the public can change its currency holdings. A change in either factor changes the deposit expansion process. An increase in either excess reserves or currency reduces the amount by which deposits and loans are increased.

Explain why the simple deposit multiplier overstates the true deposit multiplier.

Answer: The simple model ignores the role banks and their customers play in the creation process. The bank's customers can decide to hold currency and the bank can decide to hold excess reserves. Both of these will restrict the banking system's ability to create deposits. Thus, the true multiplier is less than the prediction of the simple deposit multiplier.

Who are the three players in the money supply process? Describe their roles.

Answer: The three players are: the central bank, depository institutions (banks) and depositors. The central bank (in Canada, the Bank of Canada) oversees the banking system and is responsible for the conduct of monetary policy. Banks are the financial intermediaries that accept deposits from individuals and institutions. Depositors, both individuals and institutions, hold deposits in banks.
